AceShowbiz - Kim Mathers, ex-wife of Detroit rapper Eminem, has pleaded no contest to impaired driving charges following a February crash that endangered her son and his friends.

The 51-year-old from Chesterfield, Michigan, entered her plea on May 11, 2026, at the 42-2 District Court in New Baltimore. The incident occurred on February 16, when she was driving a white Range Rover and collided with a parked silver Dodge Ram pickup truck.

The impact was significant enough to move the truck approximately 50 feet from its original spot. Police investigations confirmed that Kim Mathers was impaired at the time of the accident, with her son Parker and three of his friends as passengers in the vehicle.

She faces two misdemeanor charges: operating while impaired, carrying a 93-day sentence, and failure to stop after a collision, with a possible 90-day sentence. Kim Mathers accepted responsibility by pleading no contest to both counts immediately.

This marks another difficult chapter in Kim Mathers’ ongoing battle with substance abuse, a struggle that remains unresolved while others close to her have moved ahead.

In stark contrast, Eminem recently celebrated 18 years of sobriety on April 20, 2026. The rapper shared a photo of his sobriety coin on Instagram, symbolizing his sustained recovery following a near-fatal overdose in 2007.

Eminem has been widely recognized for his openness regarding addiction and his journey toward resilience and healing.

Kim Mathers’ sentencing hearing is scheduled for June 17, 2026, at 9 A.M. in the same district court where she entered her plea.
